+	// a2a_receive row is the ONLY durable record of a push-mode chat
+	// round-trip — request_body carries the user's message, response_body
+	// carries the agent's reply, and chat-history hydration
+	// (messagestore.PostgresMessageStore) reads BOTH back to rebuild the
+	// transcript on canvas reopen / reload. It MUST be written
+	// SYNCHRONOUSLY, before proxyA2ARequest returns and ProxyA2A flushes
+	// the 200 to the canvas — otherwise the canvas sees the reply
+	// acknowledged (and rendered optimistically) while the row is still
+	// racing in a detached goroutine, and a reload (or a workspace-server
+	// restart / deploy / OOM) between the 200 and the goroutine's commit
+	// loses the message permanently on reopen.
+	//
+	// This mirrors the discipline already applied to the poll-mode ingest
+	// path (logA2AReceiveQueued / persistUserMessageAtIngest); the
+	// push-mode counterpart was left async, which the E2E Chat
+	// "history persists across reload" test surfaced as an intermittent

+	//   - Best-effort: LogActivity logs+swallows INSERT errors internally,
+	//     so a DB hiccup never blocks or fails the user's send — behaviour
+	//     for that one request is never worse than the pre-fix async path.
